# MaterialShowcaseView
A Material Design themed ShowcaseView for Android

This library is heavily inspired by the original [ShowcaseView library][1].

Since Google introduced the Material design philosophy I have seen quite a few apps with a nice clean, flat showcase view (the Youtube app is a good example). The only library out there however is the [original one][1]. This was a great library for a long time but the theming is now looking a bit dated.

How to use
--------
This is the basic usage of a single showcase view, you should check out the sample app for more adbvanced usage.

```java

// single example
new MaterialShowcaseView.Builder(this)
.setTarget(mButtonShow)
.setDismissText("GOT IT")
.setContentText("This is some amazing feature you should know about")
.setDelay(withDelay) // optional but starting animations immediately in onCreate can make them choppy
.singleUse(SHOWCASE_ID) // provide a unique ID used to ensure it is only shown once
.show();




// sequence example
ShowcaseConfig config = new ShowcaseConfig();
config.setDelay(500); // half second between each showcase view

MaterialShowcaseSequence sequence = new MaterialShowcaseSequence(this, SHOWCASE_ID);

sequence.setConfig(config);

sequence.addSequenceItem(mButtonOne,
"This is button one", "GOT IT");

sequence.addSequenceItem(mButtonTwo,
"This is button two", "GOT IT");

sequence.addSequenceItem(mButtonThree,
"This is button three", "GOT IT");

sequence.start();

```


Gradle
--------

Add jitpack to your your build.gradle at the end of repositories:

/build.gradle
```groovy
repositories {
// ...
maven { url "https://jitpack.io" }
}
```

Add the dependency:

/app/build.gradle
```groovy
compile 'com.github.deano2390:MaterialShowcaseView:1.0.0'
```
